MANTON BAY – MAY 2019

I second that Mike.

However I would add that I am grateful for views and do not think there is any need for new equipment simply just utilised to its full potential ie zoomed in as it has been done in previous years.

Precisely ….and properly maintained by whoever the contractor is.

I’m not going to get into a discussion re the cam, it’s what it is and that’s what we’ve got. But I have always felt a bit like an unwanted visitor with Rutland, as if they don’t really want to supply information or a cam but everyone else does so we’d better.

These two are still my favourites though.

Do we know when egg 4 is due to hatch?

Referring once more to Tiger's Hatching Guide, quote

"Should there be a fourth eg it hatches on 35 or even 34 days ~  "

And looking at Chloe's Countup Clocks - Egg #4 is now 34 days old

So we can expect Egg #4 to hatch anytime from now.

Thanks Karen much appreciated.

Jane - just seen your post and my one above answers your question :-)

And looking at the clock, I am sure Chloe will get around to updating chick 3's clock sometime.

11:05 - both cams have gone down.

Will check again in 15 mins and hopefully they will have recovered.

Just rung. Currently under maintenance ……"to make sure they don't go down again" !!!!
Shouldn't be too long so just keep checking.

Thanks Mike - you're a star. I'm off out for a bit. SYAL
